App summary

Space Station AR is an augmented reality (AR) application that simulates the visibility of satellites in the night sky. With Space Station AR, you can easily spot the brilliant International Space Station, spectacular Starlink Trains, and various satellites at the forefront of space exploration with your own eyes.

As your device's camera captures the scenery around you, Space Station AR overlays passes of the International Space Station, the Starlink Train (a group of Starlink satellites), and the Chinese Space Station onto the actual scenery. You can also use the app to find bright stars, galaxies, spacecrafts like Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, and even see the direction of major cities beyond the ground. Space Station AR also indicates the positions of geostationary satellites, making it a valuable tool for antenna installation.

You can easily access satellite orbits on maps in addition to the AR views.
The "Calendar" tab displays events like upcoming satellite passes and rocket launches within the next two weeks. You can choose a pass from the list and simulate it in AR.

List of Features

* AR simulation of satellite passes overlaid on real landscapes
* Display of stars, galaxies, black holes, planetary probes, satellites, and world cities in AR (Visibility can be customized by type)
* Visualization of satellite passes on maps
* Sky chart of satellite passes and bright stars
* Presentation of satellite orbits and current locations on a global map
* Calendar listing satellite passes within the next two weeks
* Support for newly launched satellites
* Offline app usage
* Satellite pass notifications: Set notification times from 15 minutes to 6 hours before the event for accurate alerts. (Please allow background location updates for precise notifications. Disabling this feature may lead to inaccurate notifications when traveling long distances with the app closed.)

Lite edition with Ad is available. It restricts AR mode display to 30 minutes before satellite passes and does not provide real-time AR functionality. Additionally, advertisements will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Great app for me.

Whenever I launch the Spacestation app, I get a white bar on both sides of my screen when trying to view the next pass info (with the camera view). This whites out the number of days until the next pass. This didn't use to have the white bars. Has something changed, or do I need to change a setting on my Motorola Droid X? Thank you. I love the app otherwise.
